This afternoon, while pondering and daydreaming about seriously quitting OSM for real, I ventured into the land of Wikimapia.
One of the trickiest challenges in OSM is when a river (or any linear water feature) doubles as a regional or administrative boundary.

While working on an OSM-related statistics project that I need to present in the next few months, I stumbled across some conversations of the past, scattered in changeset comments and block reports.
Yesterday, I was in a meeting of the HOT QCQA WG, when Patrik_B asked a question at the very end of the meeting.
Someone ask me for “What experience do you have building websites with Open Street Maps using controls limit then monitor and report on tile usage?”
According to the official statistics page, today OpenStreetMap has hit the milestone of 10 million registered users! This is not the first time though; in fact it already happened earlier this year and in 2023 (during which year the amount even excee…
I joined OSM from the https://deflock.me/ community, and have since added 21 ALPRs. Ive also contributed a few new developments to the map, and looking to add more.

I’ve been editing OSM for about nine months and have been a heavy JOSM armchair editor for about eight months. Recently, I started using a stylus for entering geometry and it’s increased my stamina tremendously. I’ve been able to create hundreds even thousands of nodes per day without feeling any signs of repetitive strain injuries cropping up in my hand.

I’m currently exploring OpenStreetMap (OSM) and trying to understand what kind of real-world projects or applications can be built using it.
I’ve checked the documentation, but I’m still not sure how OSM data is typically used in actual applications or what kind of problems it can solve.
Could anyone please share:
Some common or professional use cases of OpenStreetMap
Any example project ideas or scenarios (personal, commercial, or open-source) where OSM is used effectively
Also, if possible, please suggest any recommended tools or libraries (like Leaflet, MapLibre, Nominatim, Overpass API, etc.) that are commonly used to work with OSM data.
Goal: I just want to get a clear idea of where OSM can be applied so I can plan my first project with it.
Thank you!

GO Sync seems to go a long way in comparing GTFS to OSM handily.
It’s still a very labor intensive process, even on a relatively sparse transit system like MetroLink.

RapiD editor has rather unique feature that it can flag pedestrian crossings where node and way are tagged differently.
First post in hopefully a series of entries where Im planning to share various OSM-related experiments I have conducted over the years.

I’ve been mulling over an idea for a while: what if we grab a complete snapshot of OpenStreetMap data for a given region, then run some statistics over it?

y first day in mapping was sweet and exciting. I felt good to know that even small tasks I did could help improve global maps. It was interesting to discover how roads, buildings, and other features are added, and I enjoyed learning while contributing to something meaningful. That experience motivated me to keep mapping and to grow my skills further.
